Before one our holiday parties I came up with a new recipe for Grilled Chicken Pesto sandwiches. We called them sammies as I used baguette sliced thin for the bread and made mini sandwiches.
I use the Cash and Carry chicken breasts which is already cooked and cubed. Take 2 cups of cubed chicken and chop small. I add about 1 cup shredded mozzarella and toss. In a separate bowl mix about 1/3 cup pesto (you can make your own pesto recipe or buy it ready to go). Add about 1/4 cup mayo to the pesto and mix. Mix everything together and grill, just like you would a grilled cheese sandwich.
You have to kind of guess as I kind of guessed for this recipe... sorry. No pictures of the grilled sandwiches as they got eaten fast, sorry...
The baguette slices make nice appetizer size sammies. Tonight I used sour dough bread for the guys' sandwiches and one of those Safeway slender sandwiches for mine. Next time I think we'll try them with fresh tomato slices.
During bowl season I need dinners that can be eaten in front of the TV. It's the Sugar Bowl tonight, one of the real bowls. I only consider the Rose Bowl, the Sugar Bowl and the Cotton Bowl the real ones... there are just too many bowls for them to actually be taken seriously.
Anyway, enjoy the sammies!
